Wut?
Intelligence is the mitigation of uncertainty, if it isn’t mitigating uncertainty it is not intelligent.
All intelligence is “trained” at some level, even “genetic” or “compositional” intelligence is “trained.” Your understanding of what that is and how it works is lacking.
Training takes time and may be conflated or inaccurate or inadequate, yet “training” (iterative preparation, usually with synthesized samples or circumstances) is necessary.
You remind me of a friend who once said he tried working out but stopped after he (inexperienced) worked out real hard and then hurt for two weeks. Working out didn’t work for him. Is training not working for you?
If you haven’t noticed, “IQ” testing has to be updated from time to time as the “average” creeps upward. 100 is supposed to always be the average, this is adjusted over generations as whatever qualities these sample are rising over time.

I have heard, not sure the validity, that they believe the removing of lead from Gasoline, has stopped the suppression of intelligence caused by lead consumption.
Intelligence in today's world is very subjective. Something could comes easily for you or passionate to push boundaries in certain fields like maths, physics, music etc. It can be trained.
I would say "Wisdom cannot be trained". Every individual is unique in this world and journey that he travels, experience in professional and personal life, mindset shapes an individual. Its almost impossible to replicate. That wisdom guides the person forever.

Intelligence is a high tolerance for not knowing yet
